Technology NYMC is keeping up with technological advances in medical education. In the lecture hall, audience response systems allow students to instantly interact with professors using a wireless keypad. A digital curriculum database is a portal to an integrated knowledge resource that offers lecture capture recordings—the ability to listen to and view lectures online, and to arrange archived recordings into meaningful segments that can be reviewed whenever and wherever the student is ready. The school also subscribes to a virtual patient case system that offers online medical case studies in family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics and surgery. Students can log on from any internet connection to engage with virtual patients and gain immediate feedback. Diversity of Patients and Clinical Experiences NYMC is ideally situated to provide you with an impressive array of clinical experiences. Through our network of more than 20 affiliated hospitals and medical centers, you will encounter the health challenges found in inner-city public hospitals as well as suburban and rural locales. Your experiences might include rotations at a fast-paced tertiary care facility, a center for hospice care, or a world-renowned children’s hospital. There is no better way to discover and develop your skills as a caring practitioner than to work one-on-one with the varied populations of this diverse clinical network. Dual Degree Programs For medical students interested in research, we offer a dual M.D./Ph.D. degree, with the freedom to choose any of the six programs in the Graduate School of Basic Medical Sciences for your concentration. Completing this degree generally takes six to seven years. Alternatively, you could combine your medical school studies with a masters degree program in the School of Health Sciences and Practice, where an M.D./M.P.H. degree can be completed in four or five years.
